Acceptance

By engaging with NKOLLO Tours and Safaris (referred to as "the Company"), customers acknowledge their acceptance of these Terms and Conditions.

Booking Tours

a) Making a Booking

Booking a safari or tour involves an interactive process. After clients express their interests, we engage in dialogue to tailor the tour to their preferences. Upon agreement on the tour details and pricing, clients proceed to make a deposit, and we confirm the booking.

Clients are required to fill out forms to provide necessary details such as inbound flights and dietary restrictions. Special requests included in our Registration Form are honored whenever possible. However, requests outside of this form do not form part of the contract.

The Company reserves the right to decline a booking between its initiation and the delivery of receipt paperwork to the client.

Once a booking is confirmed, we commit to honoring the prices outlined in the quotation, with exceptions outlined below:

• Estimated price increases: We may include estimated price increases for bookings made significantly in advance. Clients are obliged to cover such increases within specified limits.
• Government-regulated fees and taxes: Clients are responsible for additional charges due to unannounced changes in fees and taxes.
• Fuel surcharges: Clients are responsible for additional charges due to sudden changes in fuel costs.
• Major errors: In case of significant undercharging in our quotation, we reserve the right to withdraw the offer.
• Exchange rate fluctuations: Clients are responsible for additional charges due to large movements in international exchange rates.
